Printing Files

[chad fisher]

How could i go about this? I have a part designed up on mcam and i want to print it by

going File/Next Menu/ Hardcopy. The only catch is i would like to email it to a client instead of print to our default printer. The client doesnt have a cad system of any sort so this would enable them to see the size and shape of part. Any of you guru's have any ideas?

Thanks in advance......................Chad

Just do a "screen capture" with your printscreen key,save as a jpg.

Or you could print it like you had talked about

and just fax it to him.

He does have a fax don't he?

You can do

Screen

Next Menu

To clip board

Then Create a window around the area that you want.

Then open some thing like paint and right click and hit past.

 

this is helpful because you can zoom in an area and just get that detail.

I do this a lot. Even if someone has a CAD system when I do not wish to share the actual geometry.

I have found the method shared by Bucket Head works best for me. It seems to give a clearer, more detailed , pic. I paste it into a photo editor and cut the MC screen from the PC screen shot.

My customers in Europe have been very happy with the result.

If you follow cad-cam's method, you do not have to get rid of all the extra menus around your part that you want to send. You can even drop it in Word and add some comments with it.

I really do both, matters what I want to show.

but the screen save to clipBoard works nice.
